Re: new 09 gz

I've still got the Spitfire on my ride, and it is a little unstable unless you can jam it against the speedo. I'm constantly retightening the screws. It also makes my ride a lot noisier, I think because my helmet is right in line with the wind spilling over the top. It cuts the wind nicely, though, and yes, it catches a lot of bugs. I like the look of the bike with it on; I think it helps make the bike look a little more substantial to oncoming traffic. Mine is mounted a few inches higher than yours which makes me think that might be why I have so much wind noise. I'm going to try dropping it down this season to see what happens.
